Gimmick Box (Anime)


Recommended Posts

During damage calculation, if you would take battle damage: Reduce that damage to 0, then Special Summon this card as a Monster Card(Machine-Type/DARK/Level 8/ATK ?/DEF 0). (This card is also still treated as a Trap Card.) This card's ATK is equal to the amount of damage reduced to 0 by this effect.

 

It will forever outclass Gorz.

I always wondered why they never released this. However, I suspect that a real-life version will say you need to take Battle Damage involving a monster you control, as both times IV used this when one of his Gimmick Puppets were killed in battle.

 

It could also get nerfed even more, by requiring a Gimmick Puppet to be attacked, or if the damage would exceed your LP.

 

I hope it doesn't, but I could see it happening.

I'm relatively glad we are getting this. It will forever outclass Gorz.

But Gorzey is happily married and that loving couple come gliding across the field when you play him <3
*ahem*

This is a rather weird time to release this card, TBH.

As for the IRL version, I wouldn't doubt it if they either dropped the 'you take no damage' part, or they changed it to only work on direct attacks.
Either way, I still love how we are finally getting this thing.

Oh, and while I'm at it, I still absolutely fucking love the face of this card:

But then it would just be a box.
The whole fun of it is that it's a gimmick box.

The whole point is that it's stats are up in the air for what they can be.


Metal Reflect Slime's name in the manga came from doing that. Then the OCG happened and it became a standard Trap Monster. I'll take usefulness over flavour in this case.
